    Oooh there seems to be quite a few of us. Hopefully we will start getting a few who are on similar courses and can offer each other help:)
    I could really do with someone to finish off my TMA for me, by midnight tonight;)

    Wow Cassie, had no idea you were so qualified! Did you do all of your qualifications through the OU? That's fantastic!

    I'm trying to stay 2 weeks ahead of my course, I have to be honest and say AA100 is so much easier than I thought it would be, if anyone else is doing it, I can rattle through a week's worth of studying in a night, and I'm not being smug in the slightest, it's just that I really enjoy the course and the subject matter interests me so much, if I was doing something like science I like you jax I would struggle - but my course is things like Cezanne and Dr Faustaus, it's so interesting!

    AA100, this is the updated version of A103...I loved it and could also get through the work very quickly. I also discovered I loved art history and philosophy by doing this course!!!

    Why - do I hide it so well!! :rotfl: :rotfl: :rotfl:

    I started off when I was a single parent with very young children. I managed to find a reasonably well paid but really didn't enjoy it and the company didn't fund any non industry training so that's what started me off on the MBA route. I was stuck in the house on my own every night anyway so thought I might as well use the time productively. I really got addicted and decided to update my HR qualifications via the OU as well. I really enjoyed DSE 212 which is a psychology course (and I got a distinction :j ) so might pursue that once I've finished. On the other hand, quite fancy a law or economics course.... Just can't stop going back!

    (my first degree (trad uni) is philosophy)
